Nigerian singer and Grammy Award winner Tems has gifted ₦3 million to a fan who spent over 70 hours crocheting a stunning tapestry portrait of her.
The fan, identified as Odum Ifeoluwa on X (formerly Twitter), shared her handmade creation online, hoping the singer would see it. The video posted showed the time-lapsed creation process of the black and white piece, which came out looking just like the Essence singer.
She wrote on X, “I hope @temsbaby gets to see this coz I don't have much followers on here, but after 8925 Stitches and 70 hours, I finished this crochet portrait of tems, I made this to mark the 1yr anniversary of when I started crocheting. It's also my first time doing tapestry. I love you Tems.”
The tapestry garnered reactions from X users who commended the young woman for her creativity, and in time, Tems herself stumbled across her hard work and was immediately amazed.
"Yo this is unbelievable. You are incredible! I NEED IT RIGHT NOWWW. Can I buy it please? “ Tems commented."
Shortly after the interaction, it was revealed that Tems sent ₦3 million in appreciation for the artwork.
